La Quinta Resort Christmas Tree

Historic tennis match at La Quinta Resort during BNP Paribas Open early days.

Long before the BNP Paribas Open became one of the most celebrated tournaments in the world, its early chapters were written at La Quinta Resort & Club. From 1981 through 1986, the tournament was played right here in the heart of the desert, where the Santa Rosa Mountains framed the courts and created an unforgettable setting for world-class competition. What began as an exciting stop on the professional tour quickly grew into a beloved event for both players and fans.
